Visual Expression of Children in Early Childhood Education in the Context of the "A trip around the world - the Montessori Way" Project
No full textMaria Montessori je na temelju istraživanja razvila pedagošku koncepciju čiji je moto „Pomozi mi da to učinim sam“. Kako bi proveli projektni rad u odgojno obrazovnoj ustanovi, potrebno je omogućiti poticajnu okolinu koja će obuhvatiti cjelokupni razvoj djeteta. Ovaj diplomski rad istražuje razvoj likovnog izražavanja kod djece predškolske dobi kroz projekt "Put oko svijeta na Montessori način", primjenjujući Montessori pristup. Cilj rada je analizirati kako Montessori metoda, koja naglašava samostalnost, kreativnost i istraživački duh, može obogatiti likovno izražavanje djece dok istražuju različite kulture. U prvom dijelu rada, razmatraju se teorijski okviri Montessori pedagogije, uključujući ključne principe kao što su pripremljeno okruženje, sloboda izbora i učenje kroz iskustvo. Također se razmatra i likovnost i likovne tehnike u Montessori okruženju. Ovi principi omogućavaju djeci da se aktivno uključe u proces učenja, potičući njihovu maštu i kreativnost. Drugi dio rada temeljen je na studiji slučaja kojom se htjelo prikazati kako Montessori principi utječu na razvoj kreativnosti kod djece. Predstavljene su konkretne aktivnosti koje se mogu provoditi unutar projekta "Put oko svijeta na Montessori način". Aktivnosti uključuju istraživanje različitih kultura kroz likovne tehnike kao što su akvarel, kolaž i modeliranje, omogućavajući djeci da izraze svoje doživljaje i učenja na kreativan način. Ove aktivnosti ne samo da potiču likovno izražavanje, već i razvijaju socijalne vještine i suradnju među djecom.Based on research, Maria Montessori developed a pedagogical concept whose motto is "Help me to help myself". In order to carry out project work in an educational institution, it is necessary to provide a stimulating environment that will encompass the entire development of the child. This case study investigates the development of artistic expression in preschool children through the project " A trip around the World – the Montessori Way Project“, applying the Montessori approach. The aim of the paper is to analyze how the Montessori method, which emphasizes independence, creativity and the spirit of inquiry, can enrich children's artistic expression as they explore different cultures. In the first part of the paper, the theoretical framework of Montessori pedagogy is considered, including key principles such as a prepared environment, freedom of choice and learning through experience. Art and art techniques in the Montessori environment are also considered. These principles enable children to be actively involved in the learning process, encouraging their imagination and creativity. The second part of the paper is based on a case study that was intended to show how Montessori principles influence the development of creativity in children. Concrete activities that can be carried out within the project "Around the World the Montessori Way" are presented. Activities include exploring different cultures through art techniques such as watercolour, collage and modelling, allowing children to express their experiences and learning in a creative way. These activities not only encourage artistic expression, but also develop social skills and cooperation among children
Orff's music-pedagogical approach and implementation in the framework of musical activities in kindergarten
No full textGlazba igra važnu ulogu u svakodnevnom životu i prati čovjeka od najranijeg djetinjstva. Pružanjem raznovrsnih sadržaja, djeci pomažemo ne samo u glazbenom razvoju, već i u njihovom cjelokupnom rastu i učenju. Iz tog razloga, glazbeni odgoj je jedan od ključnih elemenata obrazovnih programa u vrtićima. Svaka institucija koja se bavi ranim odgojem i obrazovanjem izrađuje svoj plan i program u skladu s Nacionalni kurikulumom za rani i predškolski odgoj (NKRPOO). U skladu s NKRPOO jest i glazbeno-pedagoški pristup Carla Orffa. Ovaj rad istražuje Carla Orffa i njegov glazbeno-pedagoški pristup te implementaciju istog u radu predškolskih ustanova. Analizira povijest nastanka i glavne sastavnice Orffovog instrumentarija te karakteristike odgojitelja koji primjenjuju Orffov pristup.Music plays an important role in everyday life and accompanies a person from the earliest childhood. By providing a variety of content, we help children not only in their musical development, but also in their overall growth and learning. For this reason, music education is one of the key elements of educational programs in preschool. Each institution that deals with early childhood upbringing and education creates its own plan and program in accordance with the National Curriculum for Early and Preschool Education (NKRPOO). Carl Orff's musicalpedagogical approach is in accordance with the NKRPOO. This paper explores Carl Orff, his musical-pedagogical approach and its implementation in the work of preschool institutions. It analyses the history of creation and the main components of Orff's instrumentation, as well as the characteristics of educators who apply the Orff's approach
Research paper on obesity in the urban population of early and preschool children in the city of Zagreb
No full textPretilost je u dječjoj dobi dosegla razinu epidemije u razvijenim zemljama, kao i u zemljama u razvoju. Poznato je da prekomjerna tjelesna težina i pretilost u djetinjstvu imaju značajan utjecaj na fizičko i psihičko zdravlje. Djeca s prekomjernom tjelesnom težinom i pretila djeca vjerojatno će ostati pretila u odrasloj dobi i vjerojatnije je da će u mlađoj dobi razviti razne kronične bolesti poput dijabetesa i kardiovaskularnih bolesti. Temeljni je cilj ovog rada utvrditi razinu pretilosti u urbanoj populaciji djece rane i predškolske dobi. U svrhu postavljenog cilja provedeno je istraživanje među odgajateljima o uvjetima rada vezanima uz provođenje tjelesne aktivnosti djece u vrtićima Grada Zagreba te antropometrijsko mjerenje djece temeljem podataka o njihovoj visini i spolu. Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju na to da su odgajatelji na području Grada Zagreba uglavnom zadovoljni razinom opremljenosti sportskih dvorana i kvalitetom prehrane djece u vrtiću. Međutim, zbog nedostatka vremena, manjka osoblja i njihove nemotiviranosti sportsku dvoranu koriste uglavnom jednom tjedno. Nadalje, antropometrijska mjerenja provedena su nad 510 djece u pet vrtića Grada Zagreba u dobi od jedne do sedam godina. Rezultati ukazuju na to da djeca u urbanoj populaciji u najvećem postotku (92 %) imaju normalnu tjelesnu težinu, 6 % ima prekomjernu tjelesnu težinu, a 2 % je pretilo.Childhood obesity has reached epidemic levels in both developed and developing countries. It is known that overweight and obesity in childhood have a significant impact on physical and psychological health. Overweight and obese children are likely to remain obese into adulthood and are more likely to develop various chronic diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease at a younger age. The main goal of this paper is to determine the level of obesity in the urban population of early and preschool children. For the purpose of the set goal, a survey of educators was conducted on working conditions related to physical activity of children in kindergartens in the City of Zagreb, as well as anthropometric measurement of children based on data on their height and gender. The results of the research indicate that educators in the area of the City of Zagreb are mostly satisfied with the level of equipment of sports halls and the quality of nutrition of children in kindergarten. However, due to lack of time, lack of staff and their lack of motivation, they use the sports hall mostly once a week. Furthermore, anthropometric measurements were performed on 510 children from five kindergartens in the City of Zagreb, aged one to seven years. The results indicate that the largest percentage (92%) of children in the urban population have a normal body weight, 6% are overweight, and 2% are obese
The influence of music on the artistic expression of preschool children
No full textIstraživanja ukazuju da glazba i glazbeno obrazovanje imaju iznimni učinak na opći razvoj djeteta. Međutim još nisu u potpunosti poznati odgovori na pitanje na koji način i u kojoj količini specifični oblici glazbenih iskustava u raznim razdobljima djetinjstva utječu na dijete. Utvrđeno je da glazba može pozitivno, ali i negativno utjecati na razvoj djeteta, a isto tako i da može proširiti dječji vokabular, produžiti koncentraciju te razviti složenost govora. Djeca su od samog rođenja okružena glazbom, od prvih uspavanki, do brojalica, preko lakših do kompleksnijih pjesmica koje često budu popraćene raznim koreografijama ili proizvoljnim plesom. Sve te glazbene igre utječu na razvoj motoričke sposobnosti, osjećaja za umjetnost i stvaralaštvo, potiče se razvoj centra za ravnotežu i slično. U odgoju djece vrlo je bitno poticati njihovu maštu i dati im potpunu slobodu izražavanja, pa tako i zamišljanje zvuka kao određene boje ili oblika. Postoje mnoge vježbe zamišljanja uz glazbu, kako djeca zamišljaju određenu skladbu te to i prenesu na papir u obliku likovnog rada.
Cilj ovog završnog rada je prikazati ulogu glazbe u dječjem razvoju, s posebnim fokusom na njezin doprinos dječjem likovnom stvaralaštvu. Kroz provedbu projekta, kao primjera dobre prakse, istražena je uloga glazbe u obogaćivanju dječjeg likovnog izričaja uz poticanje djece na istraživanje raznih oblika i boja. S obzirom na to da su djeca spontano, tijekom likovnog izražavanja uz glazbu koristila krug s kojim su se ranije upoznala, povezivanje ovih područja ujedno ukazuje na integriranu prirodu djetetova učenja koju ističe Nacionalni kurikulum za rani i predškolski odgoj i obrazovanje (NKRPOO, 2014). Slušanje glazbe pobuđuje određene emocije kod djeteta koje ono može izraziti putem likovnog izražavanja što pridonosi njegovom cjelokupnom razvoju.Researches show that music and music education have an exceptional effect on child's general development. However, the answers to the questions how and to what extent specific forms of musical experiences in various periods of childhood affect the child are not yet fully known. It has been established that music can have a positive as well as a negative impact on a child's development, as well as that it can expand a child's vocabulary, prolong concentration and develop the complexity of speech. From birth, children are surrounded by music, from the first lullabies, to counting, through easier to more complex songs that are often accompanied by various choreographies or arbitrary dance. All these musical games affect the development of motor skills, a sense for art and creativity, the development of the center for balance and similar is encouraged. When raising children, it is very important to encourage their imagination and give them complete freedom of expression, including imagining sound as a certain color or shape. There are many exercises of imagination with music, how children imagine a certain composition and transfer it to paper in the form of art work.
The goal of this paper is to show the role of music in children's development, with a special focus on its contribution to children's art. Through the implementation of the project, as an example of good practice, the role of music in enriching children's artistic expression was investigated while encouraging children to explore various shapes and colors. Considering that the children spontaneously used the circle with which they were introduced earlier during artistic expression with music, the connection of these areas also indicates the integrated nature of the child's learning, which is emphasized by the National Curriculum for Early and Preschool Education (NKRPOO, 2014). Listening to music arouses certain emotions in the child, which they can express through artistic expression, which contributes to their overall development
Physical and Health Culture in Preschool Education
No full textOvaj diplomski rad bavi se istraživanjem uloge tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture u predškolskom odgoju i obrazovanju, s posebnim naglaskom na njen značaj za cjelokupni razvoj djece. Rad se fokusira na ciljeve i zadatke tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture, analizirajući njihov utjecaj na fizički, emocionalni i socijalni razvoj predškolske djece. U radu je također obrađena tema organizacije sata tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture u predškolskim ustanovama, kao i njegova važnost u svakodnevnom obrazovnom programu. Posebna pažnja posvećena je igri kao osnovnoj aktivnosti, koja ne samo da potiče fizički razvoj, već ima i ključnu ulogu u razvijanju motoričkih sposobnosti i zdravih navika. Kroz analizu različitih oblika tjelesne aktivnosti u predškolskim ustanovama, rad pruža uvid u najbolje prakse koje mogu doprinijeti unapređenju zdravlja i dobrobiti djece. Rad nudi i preporuke za daljnju implementaciju i unapređenje tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture u predškolskom obrazovanju, sa ciljem podrške zdravom rastu i razvoju djece od najranijeg uzrasta. Na kraju rada obrađena je i anketa o provođenju tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture u predškolskim ustanovama iz koje se može zaključiti da postoji još puno mjesta za napredak i od strane odgojitelja i od strane ustanove.This graduate thesis deals with the research of the role of physical and health culture in preschool education, with special emphasis on its importance for the overall development of children. The paper focuses on the goals and tasks of physical and health education, analyzing their impact on the physical, emotional and social development of preschool children. The paper also deals with the topic of organizing physical and health education classes in preschool institutions, as well as its importance in the daily educational program. Special attention is paid to play as a basic activity, which not only encourages physical development, but also plays a key role in developing motor skills and healthy habits. Through the analysis of different forms of physical activity in preschool institutions, the work provides insight into the best practices that can contribute to the improvement of children's health and well-being. The paper also offers recommendations for further implementation and improvement of physical and health culture in preschool education, with the aim of supporting the healthy growth and development of children from an early age. At the end of the paper, a survey on the implementation of physical and health education in preschool institutions was also processed, from which it can be concluded that there is still a lot of room for improvement on the part of educators and the institution
Designing a Webiste for the Purpose of Early Childhood Creativity Research
No full textBrojne promjene u društvu dovode do novih spoznaja i promjena u shvaćanju djetinjstva. Kako bi odgojitelj bio u toku s tim promjenama mora ulagati u svoj profesionalni razvoj te stalno stjecati nova i unapređivati postojeća znanja, vještine i kompetencije. Stručno usavršavanje je stoga obaveza i odgovornost svakog odgojitelja. Odgojitelji uglavnom biraju stručna usavršavanja prema svojim interesima i senzibilitetima i sve se češće odlučuju za sadržajnija usavršavanja u stručno-razvojnim centrima gdje, zbog strukture i trajanja edukacije, dobivaju širi teorijski okvir koji im omogućuje dublji uvid u područje interesa, a potiče se i učenje kroz iskustvo te primjena u praksi.
Likovno stvaralaštvo jedno je od osnovnih aktivnosti predškolskog djeteta. Ono zauzima velik dio djetetova vremena u vrtiću. Odgojiteljeva uloga je istraživati s djecom likovnu umjetnost te ih poticati, hrabriti i motivirati na slobodno kreativno izražavanje sa svrhom poticanja cjelovitog razvoja. Stoga je vrlo bitno da se odgojitelji dodatno educiraju i na ovom području kako bi bili adekvatna podrška dječjem kreiranju i likovnom izražavanju.
Cilj ovog diplomskog rada je prikazati ulogu i važnost stručnog usavršavanja u profesionalnom razvoju i odgojno-obrazovnom radu odgojitelja. Rad će prikazati koji su oblici stručnog usavršavanja te njihove prednosti i nedostatke s naglaskom na stručno-razvojne centre. Također će dati i detaljniji uvid u edukaciju stručno-razvojnog centra pregledom jednog edukacijskog ciklusa i završnog zadatka iz područja kreativnosti i likovne umjetnosti.Numerous changes in society lead to new insights and changes in the understanding of childhood. In order to keep up with these changes, educators must invest in their professional development and constantly acquire new and improve existing knowledge, skills and competencies. Professional development is therefore the obligation and responsibility of every educator. Educators generally choose professional development according to their interests and sensibilities and are increasingly opting for more comprehensive training in professional development centers where, due to the structure and duration of the education, they receive a broader theoretical framework that allows them a deeper insight into the area of interest, and where learning through experience and application in practice are also encouraged.
Visual creativity is one of the basic activities of a preschool child. It takes up a large part of the child's time in kindergarten. The educator's role is to explore visual arts with children and to encourage and motivate them to freely express themselves creatively with the aim of stimulating their holistic development. Therefore, it is very important that educators receive additional education in this area in order to adequately support children's creation and artistic expression.
The aim of this thesis is to present the role and importance of professional development in the educational work of educators. The paper will present the forms of professional development and their advantages and disadvantages, with an emphasis on professional development centers. It will also provide a more detailed insight into the education of a professional development center by reviewing one educational cycle and a final assignment in the field of creativity and fine arts
Kinesiological activity and free time of children in the area of the city of Zagreb
No full textFokus istraživanja u ovom radu je istraživanje kinezioloških aktivnosti i kako djeca iz grada Zagreba provode svoje slobodno vrijeme. Analiza odgovora pokazala kako roditelji smatraju da učestala primjena kinezioloških aktivnosti pozitivno utječe na sva razvojna područja djeteta predškolske dobi, odnosno da postoji veliki broj dobrobiti primjene kinezioloških aktivnosti u predškolskoj dobi. Također, analiza odgovora pokazala stav roditelja o tome da grad Zagreb treba češće organizirati besplatne kineziološke aktivnosti za djecu predškolske dobi s obzirom na važnost prvih godina djetetova života. Uzimaju i u obzir životni standard građana kineziološke aktivnosti za dijete na području grada Zagreba cjenovno su neprihvatljive. Roditelji su percipirali da njihova predškolska djeca provode manje vremena u igranju igrica na računalu tijekom slobodnog vremena dok više slobodnog vremena provode s njima, što je dobar rezultat istraživanja. Ključnim se pokazalo da tijekom slobodnog vremena djeca provode neki oblik sportskog programa kao što je nogomet, ali da roditelji uspijevaju kvalitetno provesti dva sata sa svojim djetetom.The focus of the research in this paper is the study of kinesiological activities and how children from the city of Zagreb spend their free time. Analysis of the responses showed that parents considered that the frequent use of kinesiological activities has a positive impact on all areas of development of preschool children, i.e. that there are many benefits of the use of kinesiological activities in preschool age. Also, the analysis of the responses showed the parents' opinion that the City of Zagreb should organize free kinesiological activities more often for preschool children, given the importance of the first years of a child's life. In view of the citizens' standard of living, kinesiological activities for children around the city of Zagreb are unacceptable in terms of price. Parents have noticed that their preschool children spend less time playing computer games in their free time while spending more free time with them, which is a good result of the research. The key finding was that in their leisure time, children engage in some form of sports program, such as soccer, but that parents manage to spend two hours of quality time with their child
Children's perception of outdoor play at pre-school age
No full textRad donosi teorijski pregled svih odrednica vezanih uz igru na otvorenom djece rane i predškolske dobi. Objašnjeni su temeljni pojmovi dječje igre, rizične igre, odnosno igre na otvorenom te naglašene sve prednosti koje igra na otvorenom ostvaruje za adekvatan socijalni, emocionalni, tjelesni i spoznajni razvoj djeteta. Također, igra na otvorenom analizirana je temeljem perspektive roditelja, odgajatelja i djece. Rad donosi i pregled istraživanja o stavovima djece i odgajatelja o igri na otvorenom uz navedene primjere dobre prakse u skandinavskim zemljama Norveškoj, Estoniji te Portugalu, Grčkoj i Republici Hrvatskoj. Istaknuti su i problemi, odnosno ograničavaju i čimbenici koji utječu na smanjenje vremena provedenog u igri na otvorenom od strane djeteta poput urbanizacije, konzumerizma te razvoja digitalnih tehnologija. Također, naglašeno je kako ekstremni vremenski uvjeti, umor roditelja uslijed užurbanog načina života te njihova zabrinutost za sigurnost djeteta, doprinose manjem boravku djece u igri na otvorenom. Navedene su i negativne posljedice koje na djecu ostavlja izostanak igre na otvorenom; asocijalno ponašanje, pad imuniteta, nemogućnost kontrole vlastitih emocija, nesigurnost, problemi s tjelesnom koordinacijom, pretilost i drugo. Istaknuto je kako je važnost igre na otvorenom prepoznata od institucija Europske unije što je vidljivo u nacionalnim strategijama i smjernicama za prava djece, Konvenciji o pravima djeteta, preporuci Svjetske zdravstvene organizacije te ostalim dokumentima. Također je utvrđeno kako još ima puno prostora za daljnji rast i razvoj institucionalnih programa i projekata u pogledu promoviranja dječje igre na otvorenom. Svrha rada odnosi se na usmjeravanje pozornosti šire društvene zajednice, a osobito roditelja i institucija, koje se bave djecom, na važnost igre u na otvorenome za adekvatan rast i razvoj djece rane i predškolske dobi.The paper Children's perception of outdoor play at pre-school age offers a theoretical overview of all factors related to outdoor play of children in the early and pre-school age. It explains the basic concepts of children’s play and risky play or outdoor play, and it highlights the advantages of the outdoor play when the conditions of social, emotional, physical and cognitive development are met. Additionally, the outdoor play is analysed from the perspective of parents, pre-school educators and children. The paper also provides an overview of the research into the attitudes of children and educators towards the outdoor play carried out in the Scandinavian countries 3 Norway and Estonia, as well as Portugal, Greece and Croatia. It also highlights the problems, i.e., restrictive factors that limit the amount of time of children’s outdoor play like urbanization, consumerism, and development of digital technologies. It is also emphasised that the extreme weather and parents’ exhaustion due to the fast-paced lifestyle, as well as their concern for the child’s safety, greatly contribute to decreased amount of time spent playing outdoor. The paper also presents the negative consequences of the lack of outdoor play on children -asocial behaviour, immunity deficiency, inability to control their own emotions, lack of self-confidence, movementcoordination problems, obesity etc. In the paper it is pointed out that the importance of outdoor play has been acknowledged by the European Union institutions which is transferred into the national strategies and children’s rights guidelines, Convention on the Rights of the Child, World Health Organization recommendations and other documents. It is also argued that there’s still a lot of room for further development of institutional programs and projects related to promotion of outdoor play of the pre-school population. The aim of the paper is to draw the attention of the general public, especially parents and institutions, to the importance of the outdoor play for the adequate growth and development of early and pre-school age children’s development
Parental Perceptions and Practices: A Qualitative Study on Sharenting
No full textFenomen sharentinga sve češće zauzima središnje mjesto u raspravama o zaštiti dječjih prava. Sharenting se odnosi na prakse roditelja koji dijele osjetljive podatke, fotografije i videozapise svoje djece na digitalnim društvenim mrežama. Stoga je provedeno kvalitativno istraživanje koje ima za cilj ispitati roditeljske percepcije i prakse vezane uz sharenting. Istraživanje se temelji na dramaturškoj teoriji Ervinga Goffmana (1959/2000) koja pruža dublje razumijevanje samopredstavljanja roditelja u digitalnom okruženju i uloge koju sharenting ima u oblikovanju njihovih online identiteta. U okviru studije provedeni su polustrukturirani individualni intervjui s 12 roditelja djece do dvanaest godina, koji objavljuju podatke, fotografije i videozapise djece na digitalnim društvenim mrežama. Kao glavni motiv objavljivanja roditelji navode želju za dijeljenjem važnih životnih trenutaka s rodbinom i prijateljima, uz napomenu da pažljivo biraju sadržaje koje dijele. U skladu s Goffmanovom teorijom (1959/2000) roditelji različitim objavama na digitalnim društvenim mrežama žele kreirati određenu sliku roditeljstva i upravljati dojmovima svoje online publike. Veći dio roditelja sharenting smatra etički prihvatljivim, navode i da je njihov krug online prijatelja ograničen na ljude od povjerenja i da je to način zaštite od zloupotrebe fotografija/videozapisa djece i njihovih podataka. Međutim, rezultati pokazuju da roditelji često nisu svjesni svih rizika i negativnih posljedica sharentinga. Neki roditelji su tijekom intervjua priznali da nisu razmišljali o mogu im neželjenim posljedicama sharentinga, poput krađe identiteta i sl. te su naveli da ih je intervju u okviru istraživanja potakao na preispitivanje navika u vezi s dijeljenjem sadržaja u digitalnom okruženju. Rezultati kvalitativne analize ukazuju na potrebu za edukacijom roditelja o zaštiti privatnosti djece. Kroz analizu roditeljskih iskustava i perspektiva, rad doprinosi boljem razumijevanju fenomena sharentinga u suvremenom društvu.The phenomenon of sharenting often takes centre stage in discussions about the protection of children's rights. Sharenting refers to the practices of parents who share sensitive data, photos, and videos of their children on digital social networks. A qualitative study was conducted to examine parental perceptions and practices related to sharenting. The research is based on Erving Goffman's dramaturgical theory (1959/2000), which provides a deeper understanding of parents' selfpresentation in the digital environment and sharenting's role in shaping their online identities. Semistructured individual interviews were conducted with 12 parents of children under the age of twelve who regularly post content about their children on digital social networks. Parents cited the desire to share important life moments with family and friends as the primary motivation for these posts, emphasising that they carefully choose the content they share. In line with Goffman's theory (1959/2000), parents aim to create a certain image of parenthood and manage the impressions of their online audience through various posts on digital social networks. Most parents consider sharenting as ethically acceptable, stating that their online circle of friends is limited to trusted individuals and that this is a way to protect against the misuse of children's photos or data. However, the results show that parents are often unaware of some risks and negative consequences of sharenting. Some parents admitted that they had not thought about potential unwanted consequences of sharenting, such as identity theft, and mentioned that the interview prompted them to reconsider their habits regarding content sharing in the digital environment. The results of the qualitative analysis point to the need for educating parents about protecting children's privacy. Through an analysis of parental experiences and perspectives, the study contributes to a better understanding of the phenomenon of sharenting in contemporary societ
Motor abilities of preschool children depending on kinesiology activity
No full textOvaj rad analizira utjecaj kinezioloških aktivnosti na motoričke sposobnosti djece predškolske dobi. Motoričke sposobnosti, kao što su snaga, brzina, koordinacija i fleksibilnost, ključne su za zdrav fizički i kognitivni razvoj djece. Razdoblje predškolske dobi je od presudne važnosti za razvoj ovih sposobnosti, jer se u toj fazi života djeca brzo razvijaju i uče. U radu se razmatraju različite vrste kinezioloških aktivnosti, uključuju i organizirane tjelesne aktivnosti u predškolskim ustanovama, te njihova uloga u poticanju optimalnog razvoja motoričkih sposobnosti. Poseban naglasak stavljen je na prednosti organiziranih kinezioloških aktivnosti u odnosu na neorganizirane ili slobodne aktivnosti, kao i na negativne posljedice nedostatka tjelesne aktivnosti na razvoj djeteta. Na temelju pregleda relevantne literature, zaključeno je da redovita i strukturirana tjelesna aktivnost značajno doprinosi poboljšanju motoričkih sposobnosti i općem zdravlju djece predškolske dobi. Rad također pruža preporuke za roditelje i odgajatelje o važnosti uključivanja djece u organizirane kineziološke aktivnosti.This paper analyzes the impact of kinesiology activities on the motor skills of preschool children. Motor skills, such as strength, speed, coordination, and flexibility, are crucial for healthy physical and cognitive development in children. The preschool period is of paramount importance for the development of these abilities, as children rapidly grow and learn during this stage of life. The paper examines various types of kinesiology activities, including organized physical activities in preschool institutions, and their role in promoting the optimal development of motor skills. Special emphasis is placed on the advantages of organized kinesiology activities compared to unstructured or free activities, as well as on the negative consequences of a lack of physical activity on a child's development. Based on a review of relevant literature, it is concluded that regular and structured physical activity significantly contributes to the improvement of motor skills and overall health in preschool children. The paper also provides recommendations for parents and educators on the importance of involving children in organized kinesiology activities
